After the second game of the season for the Vancouver Canucks that featured the emotional return of one of Vancouver’s all-time greats Alex Burrows, they will look to stay unbeaten in regulation in their new 2017-18 campaign when they host the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday night.
The Canucks fell to the Ottawa Senators in extra-rounds shootout despite another decent effort by netminder Jacob Markstrom and a statement game by veteran newcomer Thomas Vanek. On the other hand, the Jets had their first win of their three-game-old season on Monday against the struggling Edmonton Oilers, humiliating Connor McDavid‘s team in a 5-2 road victory.
